America Online acquired Time Warner in 2000 in a deal valued at over $100 billion. It was one of the largest mergers in business history but struggled to integrate the two companies' differing cultures and business models. Within a few years, AOL's stock price had declined significantly and Time Warner became the dominant partner, as AOL was unable to leverage Time Warner's assets to gain the expected growth in subscribers or advertising revenue.
